Thanks for your notes. If wanted, the first version of autoconf2.69-2.69 compat package is available in copr for testing. This is a version which is parallelly installable with autoconf-2.71. Please check/update your packages and rebuild them.

Thanks. Regards,

Ondrej

I guess that this is a historical thing: past autoconf compatibility
packages always had names such as autoconf213. Back then, dots in package
names were considered unusual or harmful, standard practice was to omit
them. The rule that the dot should be included was added relatively recently
(but already a couple years ago by now) to the packaging guidelines.
